All of it is energy. For example, when we practice Qigong, there is a huge difference when our mind is relaxed and clear than when our mind is distracted. We feel more energy. We feel the Qi sensations in the body. We become more aware of ourselves in the present moment — physically, mentally and spiritually. The exercises become more than just simple physical movements.

For over 3,000 years, the Chinese have celebrated this special day as the Mid Autumn Moon Festival. It is one of the major holidays in the Chinese lunar calendar. This moon has special significance. For farmers it marks the end of the summer harvesting season. It is a time of abundance, a time to spend with family and friends, and a time to harvest the results of the hard work put into the spring and summer growing seasons. Unlike other full moons, this full moon rises earlier and provides more light after sunset so farmers can continue finishing harvesting their crops. The significance of the harvest moon doesn’t just apply to farmers. Most of us don’t grow crops but we all grow and nourish other things that are important in our lives: dreams, ideas, relationships, love, family and children, work, passion… This is a time to slow down our frantic outward activities, rest, and reflect inward on our life’s journey so that we can continue to stay on our golden path.

This is a time of harvest, a time to start organizing the scattered patterns of the previous warmer seasons to gather – food, energy and protection -- for storage ahead of the approaching winter.
